W. Pankowski (1841-1866) - "born r. 1841 in the New World, student of the Polytechnic in Pulawy, served in Zdanowicz's detachment. Taken prisoner of war near Kazimierz with a gun in his hand, tried for 12 years of service with the Soldatens, was sentenced in Kazan to 16 years in the Nerchinsky mines for failing to swear allegiance to the Tsar. Having got to Lake Baikal, he took part in the Zabaikal uprising as one of the commanders. Captured by the Muscovites and sentenced to be shot, he later received an amended sentence of life imprisonment to the mines. As a result of his family's efforts, he was advertised by the Prussian government and thus returned to Poland, where he founded the Society for Mutual Care of Siberians in Lviv and was for some time its president. As a result of failing health he died in Markowa near Łańcut in 1886". (biography after: https://genealogia.okiem.pl/powstaniec-styczniowy/31427/wladyslaw-pankowski)
